Premiership Betting: Sunderland v Man City
Robert Hughes gives us his bite-size take on Man City’s trip to Sunderland tomorrow afternoon.
Man City got their season up and running with a comfortable win over West Ham last week, and have since strengthened their squad with the signing of defender Vincent Kompany and the return of Shaun Wright-Phillips.
Sunderland lost only narrowly to Liverpool on the opening day, and produced a surprise victory at Tottenham last week, so their current form, as well as their strong home record, will give them plenty of confidence going into this match.
The visitors’ two matches so far have produced a total of nine goals, so it’s worth looking into Over 2.5 Goals at [2.28]. Djibril Cisse may start the game after coming off the bench to score against Spurs, and can be backed at [2.75] to score again here. Also worth considering is Wright-Phillips at around [4.0] to score on his return.
